Supplying Artwork For Flexo (Basic Print)

We’d like to make your design the most eye catching and professional available. Creating your artwork to best suit the printing process will ensure swift flow through production and a high quality result.

Proof

Provide an approved and signed proof for our visual reference, showing the position of your artwork allowing 5 mm from the perferated coupon edge and 10 mm from fold and indicating the colours used in the job. (Box die lines are supplied in an easy to read file)

Art Files

We accept Adobe Illustrator or PDF finished art files. Other files can be accepted if necessary but must be requested through the Art Department first. Please attach fonts.

Images

Image formats accepted are Photoshop, EPS and TIFF. Placed images must be 150dpi or better all supplied at 100% of printed size.

Supply your images in Black & White, Greyscale or in PMS (Uncoated) colour mode only.

Note:

Place and link images into Illustrator at 100% size.
Do not re-size images within Illustrator.
Do not embed images into your Illustrator file as this unnecessarily increases file size.

The minimum recommended text sizes are as follows (using an Arial typeface):

Line Weights

Ensure the minimum line weight is not less than the following at 100% size.

Colours

Ink colours can determine readability of text. Most colours work well however some colours should be
avoided. Light Yellows and Buffs, particularly printed on white medium, cause problems.

Please Note:

Bleed - 3mm minimum bleed usually required. Do not include in the artwork as we will add where
necessary in the printing process. Allow 10mm around the outer edge of the box.
